On a quiet day in December, an unexpected event occurred.
Erselica started a fight with Paula in the dining room.
No one expected this occurrence, but to understand the situation, we must go back to the beginning of her arrival at the Bradford territory.
Everyone knows she calls Rudel "brother," people ignored it, but Paula, who is his legitimate sister, kept calling him that.
As the days passed, Erselica heard how she called him "Onii-chan" every day. Until today, after finding Erselica eating alone and asking if she had seen her brother Rudel.
She exploded.
"I can't take it anymore!"
Shouted Erselica while grabbing Paula by the shoulders.
It was a genuine attack of jealousy.
"Why do you call my Onii-chan as if he were yours? He's my Onii-chan, you brother-stealer!"
"No! Rudel Onii-chan is my big brother, he's not yours."
It was a childish fight in every sense of the word.
They gave each other light pinches and pulled each other's hair.
Then Rudel arrived and separated them.
"What's going on here?"
Asked Rudel because of the commotion.
"Onii-chan, this girl is accusing me of stealing you."
"Tell her you're my big brother!"
Exclaimed Paula, crying like Erselica.
"That's right, Onii-chan, tell her who your younger sister is."
Rudel looked indignantly at Erselica, for starting a fight where she had everything to lose.
"Huh? What the hell are you talking about?"
"Paula is my only younger sister. You are just a fake."
Upon hearing that, Paula puffed out her chest with pride, unlike Erselica's, which deflated.
"Humph, humph. See? My brother recognized me as his only sister."
"Uwaaaaaaaaaaah! You're an idiot, Onii-chan!"
"I hate you so much! Poopyhead! Virgin! Middle-aged salaryman!"
She said all that while leaving the place crying.
(I guess I'll have to reward her later.)
(But seriously, that idiot does things that will harm her sooner or later.)
All this was observed by Alisa and Airi, who also arrived at the place and stayed watching the situation in silence.
"So it's not that Rudel-san told Erselica-san to call him brother..."
"Erselica herself calls him brother because she wants to."
They both looked intently at each other and murmured to themselves.
"I think I finally understood the conversation they had on the ship that day."
"The one where you said she called him 'Onii-chan, are there problems?'."
"Yes. I finally understood what was happening."
Could it be that they both discovered they are reincarnated?
The answer is no, it would be too far-fetched for them to reach that conclusion.
The real conclusion was a different one, even further from reality.
"Rudel-san has a fetish for younger sisters, without a doubt."
"Really?"
"It must be so. That's why he didn't scold Erselica-san for fighting with Paula-chan."
"That makes sense, but if Rudel really developed a fetish for younger sisters, that will be a danger in the future."
"We must prevent Rudel from developing weirder fetishes."
"What are you two talking about in secret?"
Bell arrived at the place and watched them conversing behind closed doors; they told her what happened and Bell came up with an idea.
"In that case, let me help you."
"I know a method where we can solve this."
The two agreed to Bell's idea, although they knew it would be a bad idea.
◇◇◇
Suddenly, Rudel was summoned to a room by Alisa and Airi.
"They said to wait for them here and that they would open the door for me."
"Bell, do you think it will work?"
"Of course it will."
"Alisa, I feel ridiculous for what we're about to do."
"Don't worry, Airi, all this is for Rudel's good."
"What the heck is going on in there?"
Said Rudel while hearing his girlfriend's commenting strange things.
He decided to resolve this and knocked on the door so they'd know he had arrived.
"Girls, I'm here."
"Kyah, he's here, Alisa!"
"Very good, Airi, just as we practiced."
"Ahem. Come in, Rudel."
Upon hearing his name, he opened the door and was surprised by what he saw.
"Welcome, Onii-chan, woof."
"W-welcome, Onii-sama, meow—"
Alisa and Airi were dressed as maids, but each had an animal ear and tail corresponding to the sound they made.
"I'm a cute little doggy. Onii-chan, do you want to rub my tummy?"
"B-better play with me, Onii-sama, or I'll get in a bad mood, meow—"
Each was acting the role that corresponded to them, but the embarrassment was marked on their faces.
Bell's plan was for Rudel to manifest those fetishes he was developing exclusively on them so no one else would be affected.
They expected a lustful beast to throw himself at their bodies.
But what they got was Rudel's horrified face upon seeing them in that cosplay that didn't match their personalities.
"G-girls, what's wrong with you? Did you eat something and feel sick?"
"I expected ridiculous things from them and Erselica, but coming from you it's very surreal."
Upon hearing his words, their faces began to blush; Alisa crouched down on her knees to hide her embarrassment and Airi hid behind the curtain.
"Kyah! Don't look at me, Rudel!"
"Rudel-san, please ignore what you saw! Ignore it, please!"
Then Bell descended near Rudel.
"What did you think of my gift, Master?"
"Bell? I should have imagined you were behind this."
"How could you think of making them do something like this in broad daylight?"
"Things like that are done at night. And it should suit their personalities."
"I mean, an Airi asking me to pet her was cute, but an Alisa acting like a bratty cat was something worthy of a royal cat."
Even if they felt embarrassed, it seems the plan failed successfully.
Or it was supposed to be like that after what Bell said.
"Don't be bitter, Master, and enjoy the embarrassment on their faces. Here are more photos."
Bell gave me photos of all the outfits they wore.
Sailor outfits with long stockings.
Nurse outfits with short stockings.
Even...
"Bunny girls?!"
Seeing both dressed as bunny girls was something very sensual, especially because the clothes were very tight.
"Wait, Bell! You said you wouldn't show that to Rudel!"
"Ah. I lied."
A flash dazzled the room.
"My collection of embarrassing photos of the girls, volume 1, has just been completed."
"Felicia."
"I'm here."
Felicia came out of hiding from the room with a camera.
"Here I fulfill my deal. I'll go print the photos and spread them around the territory."
"Bell! Wait there!"
"Bell-chan, I'll get angry if you do that."
Alisa and Airi went after Bell with the uniforms still on, like the ears and tails.
They chased her all over the house and then through the village.
In the end, Bell did spread the photos.
◇◇◇
"Mmm, she's cute."
"Isn't she?"
Rudel was left alone with Felicia. He would punish Bell later, so there was no point in chasing her.
But Felicia took advantage of that opportunity to show Rudel something she could never talk about with anyone.
About Alisa's cuteness when she was a child.
She showed him photos of her when she was 5 years old and learning to play the piano, her first children's dance, the day her tooth fell out.
She had a bunch of photos of her.
Only her husband could be told this embarrassing secret.
"How many ´pics do you have?"
"All the ones I could generate at that time."
"I see."
(Is this woman a lolicon or something?)
(Or is she just obsessed with Alisa.)
Rudel thought about how terrifying Felicia was in her private life and preferred her in her work life.
But thanks to this, he knows he can bribe her with photos of Alisa whenever he wants.
Rudel gained an important ally that day for when he tries to get his way.
